The Election Commission of India (ECI) ordered a re-poll for the Muallungthu polling station in Mizoram’s Aizawl South 3 Assembly Constituency today. The re-election, which took place at 7 a.m., involved 1084 voters in the constituency. The ECI ordered re-polling after voting personnel failed to clear mock polls before the November 7 assembly elections.
In the recent single-phase elections for 40 assembly seats in Mizoram, the state witnessed a voter turnout of 78.40 percent. In the 2018 Assembly elections, the Mizo National Front (MNF) secured 26 seats with a vote share of 37.8 percent, leading to the displacement of the Congress from power.
The Mizo National Front, Indian National Congress, and Zoram People’s Movement were among the major political parties that ran candidates for all 40 seats. In addition, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ran for 23 seats. The results of the re-election in Muallungthu will be factored into the state’s final assembly results.
